“My mother was hesitant to do this but we really underestimated the cost it takes to turn a bus into a food truck. If you’d like to donate here’s the link and it’s also in my bio. Maybe tag @theellenshow @tylerperry or @meekmill in the comments. Thanks for getting me this far I couldn’t have done this without my followers!”
